A Train Ride Back in Time

Hop on board a vintage steam train ride at Carmarthen. Most of the fleet at Gwili Railway are former industrial or wartime trains, but today they take passengers on scenic rides along the Gwili River and through fields and woodlands. The service is operated by enthusiastic volunteers who would be happy to share stories about the historic trains with you.
The Vintage Train Trip experience currently runs on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Sundays, departing at 11:00, 13:00 and 15:00.
For more train experiences and seasonal operating hours, check the Gwili Railway website.

Founded by a gardener, painter and chef, this sustainably and ethically-driven restaurant prides itself on using local and organic produce from the Carmarthen area. Expect humble, yet delicious dishes from their menu such as a pork belly sourdough sandwich and an organic yellow split pea dahl.
Reservations can be made online.

Castell Henllys is a reconstructed Iron Age village featuring interpreters roleplaying as the Celtic Demetae tribe and the roundhouses they lived in. Archaeologists and volunteers have worked together to make this an authentic Iron Age experience. Not only will you learn about history, but the operators hope to pass on lessons about sustainability based on the tribe's self-sufficient lifestyle.
